Alongside conductor Simon Hale and 16-piece choir the LJ Singers, Smith will sing hits including I’m Not the Only One and Stay With Me. Expect a few judiciously chosen covers too, including Joni Mitchell’s classic Both Sides, Now. Phil Harrison
The Hit List
6.20pm, BBC One
Who will win £10,000 by simply identifying songs and artists? Rochelle and Marvin Humes’s slog through musical snippets continues, with highlights coming from an Oasis-loving contestant whose attempt to pay homage to the band left him with a poorly typographed “Live Forever” tattoo. “I showed my dad. He’s like: ‘Who’s Clive?’”Alexi Duggins

Orange chinos and pastel linen jackets ahoy as Tory traveloguer Michael Portillo spends a weekend in the Portuguese capital.

Film Choice
The Promised Land, 9pm, BBC Four
The Danish title, Bastarden (The Bastard), gives a flavour of the class conflict embedded in this fierce, fact-inspired period drama. Mads Mikkelsen plays self-made army captain Ludwig Kahlen, who has a scheme to turn 18th-century Jutland’s wild heath into viable arable land. Despite the king’s blessing, he faces violent opposition from vain, sadistic local noble Schinkel (Simon Bennebjerg), who uses his power and wealth to destroy the upstart. It’s basically a western, with Kahlen an archetype along the lines of Gary Cooper and Clint Eastwood: principled and stubborn but softened by Romany orphan Anmai Mus (Melina Hagberg) and Amanda Collin’s runaway servant Ann Barbara. Simon Wardell
Bob Marley: One Love, Out now, Paramount+
Your love of Reinaldo Marcus Green’s biopic may depend on your interest in the titular reggae star’s Rastafarian beliefs, which are expressed regularly and solemnly throughout. His faith, however, did inform his politics and groundbreaking music (of which there is plenty on show). The drama tidily encapsulates these in a two-year period – 1976 to 78 – during which Marley played two peace concerts, recorded his most famous album, Exodus, and was diagnosed with cancer. Kingsley Ben-Adir gives a respectful performance as Bob, with Lashana Lynch a stoic Rita. SW
Odette, 10.05am, BBC Two
Filmed a mere five years after the events it depicts, Herbert Wilcox’s 1950 wartime thriller has a real ripped-from-the-headlines feel. British acting royalty Anna Neagle adopts her best French accent as SOE agent and mother of three Odette Sansom, who goes undercover in the south of France under the command of Trevor Howard’s Peter Churchill. Amid air drops, nighttime escapes, arrests and interrogations, she preserves her sang-froid – even after slick, smarmy German intelligence operative Colonel Henri (Marius Goring) rumbles her. SW
Spellbound, 1pm, BBC Two
Alfred Hitchcock meets Salvador Dalí in this 1945 thriller about psychoanalyst Constance (Ingrid Bergman) and her amnesiac patient, John (Gregory Peck), who may be a murderer. Dalí’s involvement as designer – in a recollected dream that holds the clue to John’s memory loss and the killing – was cut to about two minutes but still creates a surreal, unsettling atmosphere unlike any other Hitchcock movie. Bergman, in the first of her three films with the director, is typically smart and sympathetic, as the mystery of the man Constance has fallen for deepens. SW
